An [Acronym] for __T__otal __C__ost of __O__wnership. The total cost incurred by all aspects of ownership and operation of a particular item in addition to initial capital outlay, including such factors as administration, maintenance, licensing, updates and end-user training. Such a figure is always difficult to obtain and disputable, thus [TCO] is a term mainly (ab)used by MarkeTroid~s, who will always claim that [TCO] favours their product, even if it would appear to be expensive. This is MicrosoftCorporation's current anti-[Linux] marketing strategy, after they were forced to admit that they could never be as cheap as [Linux]. See also CompetitiveComparisons.
